** Description changed: Selecting Braid screensaver when Desktop effects are activated runs my system unusable. I'm running Fiesty on a dual core amd64, but i guess these kind of details are now included automatically in the report, right? So what happens is that the screen freezes and i can only move the mouse and hear gaim playing specific sounds. the keyboard is completely unresponsive, not even the caps lock or num lock buttons don't work. I can only press the reset button on my computer to get back. Obviously, going back to screen saver preferences puts me in the same situation. i must first deactivate desktop effects and only then change the screensaver. I also tried, after a crash, to let it launch by itself the selected screen saver - Braid - but that too freezes the computer after it displays those coloured circles on full screen. This is the only screen saver with this problem. I checked all the others one by one. + Known graphic cards on which the bug can be reproduced : + 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: nVidia Corporation G70 [GeForce Go 7600] [10de:0398] (rev a1) + 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: nVidia Corporation GeForce 8300 GS [10de:0423] (rev a1) + 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: nVidia Corporation GeForce 8500 GT [10de:0421] (rev a1) + 00:12.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: nVidia Corporation Unknown device [10de:0533] (rev a2) + 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS, 943/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller [8086:27a2] (rev 03) + ProblemType: Bug Architecture: amd64 Date: Mon Apr 2 18:30:51 2007 DistroRelease: Ubuntu 7.04 Uname: Linux vlad-desktop 2.6.20-13-generic #2 SMP Sat Mar 24 23:12:02 UTC 2007 x86_64 GNU/Linux
